NYE 2014 MAKE UP: GLITTER GLITTER & MORE GLITTER

Wednesday, 31 December 2014

Another year has flown by so fast; I can't believe that it's almost 2015! Y'all know that I don't post this late at night, but I was suddenly inspired to make this post and I'm trying to get it up as quickly as possible so anyone who is interested in these bargain items can run out and grab them in time for their New Year's Eve celebrations!

Collection Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner

These little beauties are perfect for adding a little pop of glamour and fun to any eye look, with minimal fuss. They come in a huge variety of colours though for some bizarre reason I only own the three shades pictured which are (L-R) Dig It!, Rock Chick and Hustle. The glitters in these eyeliners have been loaded tenfold into a clear gel base that leaves all the room in the world for the glitter to rock the show. They dry super fast and are pretty good at staying in place.

Hustle is a beautiful mix of silver, purple and blue which in turn creates a multi-faceted pewter glitter.

Dig It! is a mix of black and gold litter which is great layered over a black eyeliner, but I find it's even better on it's own so the black glitter can really pop.

Rock Chick is a mix of black and silver glitter, which I find is interchangeable with Dig It depending on the look you're going for. I feel that Rock Chick is more complimentary with cool eye shadow looks, and Dig It! works best with warmer eye shadow looks. But that's just my humble opinion.

Note: Boot's online selection is disgraceful so you might have better luck in store.

Barry M Nail Paint

(L-R) Red Glitter, Copper, Countess, Amethyst Glitter

Red Glitter and Amethyst Glitter look fab layered over other solid colour nail polishes, Copper looks awesome layered over a solid colour nail polish but also holds its own alone, and Countess is a textured, glittery nail polish which looks phenomenal on its own.

Copper - a clear base with gold and yellow fine or micro-glitter. This photo is pretty terrible but I deliberately included it as you can see how the light has caught the gold and orange tones of the glitters beautifully.
